moothemagiccow:So if I change my name to Debbie and wear dresses I can jerk it to naked women in their locker room?

Uhm....she wasn't jerking it? She was changing her clothes? And yeah, if you changed your name to Debbie and lived as a woman and identified as a woman, and took all the crap you have to take as a trans person, you would get to change in the locker room that fit your gender identity.

But nobody gets to jerk it in locker rooms-- not men, not women.

Also, for all of you out there terrified that she would be somehow ~aroused~ by the other people in the gym? Uhhh....are we segregating locker rooms based on sexual orientation rather than gender now? B/c I'm a lesbian and I'm allowed in same the locker room.

It's cool, I'll jerk it afterward. These were my intentions, not the transformer.

Okay, I'm as pro-LGBT rights as possible and realize that transgendered people have a terrible burden in life trough no fault of their own and should have their rights respected, but the fact is that no amount of political correct happy thoughts makes a person who still has a penis female enough to change in the women's locker room, regardless of their psychological gender.

Any other "think of the children" or "puritanical helicopter parents" article would be met with nothing but disdain here on fark, but I guess we have to make an exception since the person is transgendered.

If she really must use the women's locker room, she can try to be sensitive to the situation by changing under a towel or using the provided privacy curtain. And maybe she could wear shorts or something in the sauna. There is no reason for her to walk around with her cock out for extended periods of time, especially with children around. Men shouldn't do that around children in the men's locker room either.

Not everyone starts college around 18 years of age and limits their education to one continuous period. Perhaps becoming more educated and possibly obtaining a new degree is "getting on with life" for this person.

Mr. Potatoass:Have a penis? Use the Men's locker room.Don't have a penis? Use the Women's locker room.Have a penis and tits? Stay out of locker rooms.

It would be even more simple to remove the apparently slippery gender identifications from the locker rooms themselves. Instead of Men's and Women's locker rooms, you would have a locker room for the Penised and another for the Non-Penised. Easy. Imagine the easy to read graphics on the doors.

Here's the thing-- she wasn't sauntering around dick-first; she was changing and people walked by her and saw, while she was putting on clothes-- that she had a penis.

epoch_destroi:Yeah, fark gender variant and intersex people! If you have a visible physical disability of any sort, or are sort of androgynous, you should stay the fark out of the gym and the pool, too!

Discretion is a thing. As crazy as this may sound, it's possible to go to the gym or pool and change in such a way that no one sees your genitalia. This "lady" was hanging out nude in the sauna. You have to draw the line somewhere.

It was obviously more than that, given that TFA says she was hanging out naked in the sauna. Use a towel or privacy curtain. At a minimum, change in a corner with your back turned. These are solveable problems.
